Over 30 years of retirement, Dietz would collect as much as $1.21 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes North Cook News.
The projection assumes Dietz received $25,428 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 4 years of retirement, Dietz will have already received $106,382 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
